One of the leading manufacturers of two-wheelers in India, Hero MotoCorp once again ignited a spark in the heart of bike lovers in India by setting the stage on fire with its brand new ‘Karizma XMR 210’ version of the sports bike yesterday on Tuesday, the 29^th of August in this year. It is an attempt by the company to get the sports bike brand named ‘Karizma’ reintroduced in the field of two-wheelers in sports, under, which it has a record of selling middle-range sport-tour motorbikes previously. It is a no-brainer that the cool and ravishing bike would be inaugurated by none other than the ‘Cool Dude’ of the Hindi movie industry, Hrithik Roshan. Somebody with a personality and looks like Hrithik Roshan could be the right person to officially cut the ribbon for the unveiling of an equally cool dude kind of bike. This latest addition to the series of launching sports bikes smells of a biking experience that might prove to remain unparalleled. This comes with a combination of one of the most advanced technologies and elements of design that look splendid on the bike. From the grooving powerful engine to the innovative features that have been installed in the bike to make the ride on the bike enjoyable and safe, this bike possibly was introduced in the market to give a shake to the standards of performance and style in the two-wheeler industry.

 

The Dashing Design

Though the bike comes with a dashing and bold look, it has been revealed by the makers of the bike that their idea of designing the bike has also been inspired by the designing standards of their highly coveted predecessors that dominated the bike market earlier for quite a long period.

The front side of the sport-tour bike has a front fascia that is quite a new and innovative addition to the design of the bike. The front part of the bike has also been equipped with Light light-emitting diode and (LED) headlight that is supposed to make riding the bike at night times safe as well as enjoyable. Not just mere light-emitting diodes or LED headlights, the headlights also have DRLs or daytime lamps fitted in them. This makes biking on the road an enjoyable experience even during the day in areas, where there is less access to sunlight or if the day remains cloudy. This would also enable other drivers to spot someone on the bike clearly and visibly. There are light-emitting diodes or LEDs fitted into the indicators to give clear signs to someone in behind if the rider of the bike has to change directions suddenly. Either side of the bike will have the ‘XMR’ logo printed in huge on them. This is done to give the bike an aggressive fairing. Supported by trellis fame made in still, the foot pegs on the bike have been placed a little behind to generate the feeling of a sports bike.

Aimed at providing the most comfortable experience of biking to both the rider as well as the one, who is sitting on the pillion, the seat of the bike is designed in a sculpted single-piece manner with soft padded upholstery that is added as a recompense to enjoy longer rides, especially, in the months of summer. The rear seat is elevated at a comfortable angle to make the experience of riding much more secure and comfortable.

 

The Cool Colors

The bike comes in a variety of colours that would ensure that the riders choose to experience their individuality. Whether it comes in the shade of the ‘Iconic Yellow’ the raging ‘Turbo Red’ or the final option as of now, the ‘Matte Phantom Black’, it can be said that every variant of the ‘Karizma XMR 210’ comes unfurling in its colour.

 

Quite a Feat in the Features

The bike comes packed with several marvellous features. The bike has a display that is fully digitized with an LCD (liquid crystal display) screen for displaying the power, speed, fuel and kilometres covered. At the same time, it also provides other additional advantages such as connectivity through the use of Bluetooth devices, a turn-by-turn system for navigating the bike and an adjustable windscreen that is segment-first by nature. No wonder that it is quite a feat to get those features.

 

The Power-Packed Performance

It is not just the exterior that is enchanting enough to swoon the mind of somebody but also the range of performance that the bike could offer to its riders.

The powertrain specifications will enable the prospective buyers to get a complete understanding of how the bike would be performing once the ignition has been turned on. The bike comes with a good engine that is a brand new power station that comes brand new with 210 cc mileage ability has a single cylinder and is liquid-cooled. It can provide a range of power that is almost up to 25.15 brake horsepower or bhp and almost 20.4 Newton meters or Nm of torque. The transmission of the bike will be taken care of by a powerful gearbox that is equipped with six-speed gears.

 

Fuel Efficiency First

Improved efficiency in fuel is a constant feature in every Hero MotoCorp bike and this bike has also not been left out in terms of its ability to provide the optimal use of fuel. This comes packed with reduced emissions and gets the bike marked as friendly to nature and the environment. The ignition key gets automatically turned off as soon as the bike stops for more than a few seconds. Thus, this enables the conservation of fuel without having to compromise on the quality of the performance.

 

Enjoyable Suspensions

To aid in the riding experience and make it comfortable, the bike comes fitted with a comfortable telescopic fork suspension at the front. The suspension at the rear portion of the bike would come armed with mono-shock absorbing equipment that would be preloaded and at the same time would be also adjustable. The brakes would be taken proper care of by single disc brakes that are located on both ends of the bike. This would be the first time that any Hero MotoCorp motorbike would be featuring an ABS that is double-channeled. This would help the tires of the bike from getting locked to maintain the stability of the bike, especially, in case the emergency brakes are applied.

 

 Pinch on the Pocket

The price range has been set for the time being at an introductory price of 1,72900 rupees. However, the prices are supposed to increase in the next few weeks. The bookings for the bike have already begun. The bike is supposed to compete with its rivals in the market in terms of its price with the Yamaha R15 V4 priced at 1.82 lakhs rupees, Suzuki Gixxer priced at 1.81 lakhs rupees, KTM RC 200 priced at 2.18 lakhs of rupees and the Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 that is priced at 1.72 lakhs of rupees.

Thus, it can be said that the bike riding experience is going to be fun for those, who oftentimes feel the urge to go vroom.
